Next morning;

Swasan room:

Sanskar woke up due to getting disturbed by sun rays. He opened his eyes and sees the time. It was 7:00 a.m. Then he looked around and didn't find Swara and Arshit and then he remembered about Pooja and Holi celebration. He gets up from the bed hurriedly and takes his towel and goes to washroom. After sometime, he came outside and find his clothes that he would wear in Pooja was kept on the bed.

He smiles unknowingly looking at it. He took his clothes and get ready then went downstairs.

Downstairs;

Swara had already made Arshit ready and he was playing with his toys. Ap was doing arrangements for Pooja and Swara was helping her then Laksh came to her and give her idiotic smiling look. Swara looks at him and gets confused then she sees that he was hiding his hand at his back. Swara look at him suspiciously but then she understood what he is going to do. Before Laksh could come closer to her she instantly go to AP and stand with her. But Laksh still went and stood beside Swara. He was seeking the opportunity to AP go from there.

Suddenly AP move from there and Laksh instantly threw colour toward Swara and laughs but his laugh fade away suddenly when he sees the person to whom he threw colour and sees Swara standing behind that person giving him mischievous look.

Small Flashback;

When AP went from there, Swara understand that Laksh is gonna do something like that and sees Sujatha was coming toward this direction. So, she instantly bent down when Laksh threw colour and sujatha came there and whole colour smeared on her face. As Laksh was busy in laughing. Swara get up and stand behind Sujatha.

Flashback end.

Sujatha: Oh god!! ( look at Laksh angrily) Laksh what you did? Jiji, see your son spoiled my saree and make up? Oh god, I specially wore this saree for today's Pooja and you spoiled it with color.

Ap: Sujatha, what happened? Why are you shouting? And who did this it?

Sujatha: Your this idiot son Laksh.

Laksh was standing. He doesn't know what to do and how to handle this Sujatha. Swara was smiling watching his condition.

Ap: Laksh, what you did? Why are you being so childish? You are not small kid. Is it look good to bahave like this?

Laksh: Mom, it's colour only and today's Holi and Chachi ji, your saree can be washed. It's just dry colours. And if not, then I will bring same saree for you. So, Please stop your drama for today at least.

Sujatha: look at him jiji, look at the way he is talking.

Ap: Leave it Sujatha, you go and get ready fast. Pooja will start in sometime.

Sujatha nods making faces and Left.

Ap: And you Laksh, why did you applied colour on her?

Laksh: Mom, it's not my fault. It's Swara's fault. She bent down and colour applied on her face (pout).

Ap : What? You were going to apply colour on Swara? She is ready for Pooja. So, don't do that and get ready fast.

Laksh: Mom, I will get ready but before that I will apply colour on her. After all she is my bhabhi and best friend too. After that I will get ready. Right Swara?

Saying this he took colour from plate and move toward her. Swara instantly runs from there.

Ap: Laksh!!

Swara was laughing and running and Laksh was behind her. She move toward stairs but suddenly she dashed with someone and she was about to fall but the person hold her instantly in his secure arms.

Sanskar who just came there sees them running and suddenly Swara dashed with him.

Swara closed her eyes with impact and in fear of falling. She gripped Sanskar's shoulder tightly. Sanskar hold her waist and look her. She was looking like angel in white and grey color saree with pearl work. The vermilion applied in her hairline, her Mangalsutra. She was having very light make-up and small bindi adored her. She was looking divine. Swara slowly open her eyes and look at Sanskar. He was already looking into her beautiful eyes. She had applied kajal. It was not first time Sanskar was admiring her but every time he look at her. She looks new. He gets more attracted toward her.

Laksh look at them finding them lost in each other, their eyelock and then sees colour in his hand as if he was waiting for this to over so that he can apply colour to Swara. No one was there accept trio.

After a minute,

Laksh: Bhai, Swara, look I don't I have any problem. I can wait whole day but dad and chacha ji will definitely not like to get embarrassed if they see your romance in the middle of hall.

Hearing Laksh, Swara and Sanskar came in their sense. Swara looked away shyly and Sanskar made her stand straight and don't know why but he wasn't feeling awkward with Laksh's comment as his mind was replaying Swara falling in his arm, Her face.

Laksh: Thank God it's done. Now, Swara get ready.

But Swara immediately hide behind Sanskar.

Sanskar: What are you doing Laksh?

Laksh: Today's Holi right? So, I m applying colour. As Simple as that.

Sanskar look at Swara standing behind him.

Ap come there : Laksh, you are still not ready? What are you doing? Go fast and get ready.

Laksh (murmured): Yeah, I was watching a romantic movie.

Ap: What?

Laksh: Nothing.

Ap: So, go now and get ready. Pandit ji also arrived and play your Holi afterward, don't know when will you grow up?

Laksh: Mom please, I m grown up. Not a child. Stop it na. Okay fine, I m going.

Saying this Laksh went. Sanskar smiles at his drama.

Ap: Swara beta, come with me. I need your help. Sujatha was doing that but suddenly she gone. So, help me beta. It will finish soon and Sanskar, your papa was calling you.

Swara nodded.

Sanskar: okay Maa.

Swara goes with Ap.

Suddenly Swara turned around and sees him. Sanskar was about to go toward Dp room but feels something. He turned his gaze only to see Swara. His heart flutters. Swara instantly turn around blushingly hiding her eyes as he saw her and bit her lips shyly.

A smile formed on Sanskar's lips. Swara went with Ap and He also goes to Do room.

After sometime Pooja was done. Everyone was doing aarti. Dp and Ap then RP and sujatha. After that Sanskar come to do aarti but sees Swara standing with Arshit at her place only. He called her looking at her.

Sanskar: Swara.

Ap: Go Swara, I am with Arshit.

Swara sees AP who assured her through eyes then look at Sanskar. After giving Arshit to AP, she goes to Sanskar and do aarti with him. After them raglak also did aarti.

After Pooja, Holi celebration started. Everyone was happy but most happy one was Laksh. He was super excited. Everyone took blessings from elders and elders also applied colour on them wishing and bless them.

Holi party was arranged in the garden outside. They went to garden. Sanskar was also going out when Laksh stopped him.

Laksh: Bhai, one min...

Sanskar look at him confusingly.

Laksh: I know you got ready for Holi celebration. I don't know whether you celebrate it and apply colour or not. Still, I just hope you move on your life and these colors bring so much happiness..

Sanskar (smiles): They will Laksh and who said I won't apply colour. Lucky when I said I m okay with this celebration. I mean it. I m fine because now I came to know that life doesn't stop for anyone and we should also play along with it and yoi also know the reason behind it.

Laksh (smile): Hmm.

He takes some colour in his hand and apply on Sanskar face.

Laksh: happy Holi Bhai.

Sanskar: What was that?

Laksh: you only said you don't have any problem in applying colour. Then?

Sanskar: yes, but what you did was formality. I will tell you.

Laksh confusingly look at him.

Sanskar (held him by shoulder): You look good while cracking jokes and fun. So, don't be serious Everytime. Specially when it's not needed. I know you care for me but be yourself Lucky and I m here with you, with everyone, all fine. understood?

Laksh (smiles): Hmm.

Sanskar: So now what are you waiting for? come let's go.

Laksh nods and they were about to go when Sanskar took a hand full of colour and throw on Laksh making his face fully colour pink.

Laksh: Bhai,...!!!

Sanskar (laughs): Happy Holi Lucky!!

Sanskar runs from there laughing.

Ap was seeing all this with teary eyes but it was of happiness. After so much time, they are celebrating this festival with all happiness.

She also goes out where everyone was already present and applying colours to each others. So many friends and relatives and friends were there. Shekhar and shomi also come. Swasan and raglak took blessing from them. Laksh was fully in fun mood. He was enjoying dancing. He danced doing crazy steps. Sanskar also joined him. They danced together whereas otherside, Sujatha ate bhang and she was behaving weirdly. So, RP took her inside.

Everyone were admiring the brothers Bonding, the elders were really happy to see Sanskar Happy. Swara also applied colour but not much. She was just standing and looking at Sanskar. Then she sees Ap is going inside. She asked her.

Ap: Actually Swara sweets are kept inside. So, I m going to take that.

But swara stopped her and told her to be there. She will bring it. AP said ok and goes from there.

Swara was going when suddenly she feels her blouse loosen as if the hook opened. Swara instantly stand with her back stick to a pillar. She got too much worried. She was standing outside and to go inside, she had to go by passing so many guests who were already there.

She didn't know what to do. She can't even call anyone for help. She sees Uttara. She tried to move slowly hiding from everyone but couldn't.

She got highly afraid and tears formed in her eyes. She closed her eyes in helplessness but then only she heard someone and opened her eyes.

Voice: what happened Swara?

Swara open her eyes only to find her husband was standing there in front of her. Sanskar sees tears in her eyes and got worried.

Sanskar (cups her face): Swara?(Concerned) Swara what happened? Please tell me.

Swara was feeling little awkward. She did't know how to tell this to Sanskar. She avoid looking at him. Sanskar noticed it and assure her.

Sanskar: Tell me Swara. I m here na. What happened?

Swara felt so much concern and calmness in his voice. She also calms a bit. She decided to tell him to call Uttara but when she sees toward Uttara's direction, she had already left from there and elders were together. So calling AP will also not look good. While Ragini will never help her. Even in worst situation. So, she finally decided.

Sanskar look at her expression but couldn't figure out. Swara signed him to call Ap.

Sanskar: Maa? but why?

Swara didn't tell anything. She tried to avoid it and tell him to call Ap but Sanskar was concerned as he saw her in tears and didn't want to leave her.

Sanskar: Swara, I m not gonna call anyone till you tell me why are you crying?

Swara wasn't able to think what she should do. So, finally she gave up and look around if anyone was watching and get relieved that no one was looking there. She slowly turned around and close her eyes tightly. Sanskar who was confused till now saw at her back that the one hook is open. He was feeling embarrassed. Swara again turned around but didn't look at him. He immediately look away and say.

Sanskar: I m sorry, I...(Didn't know what to say) I will call Maa, you wait here.

Swara nodded. Sanskar was about to turned to go but sees someone coming and instantly hugged Swara. Swara suddenly get shocked. She felt numb feeling him hugging her.

Sanskar (murmured): Someone is coming Swara. Don't feel awkward. please.

While Swara was giving least heed to his words as his hand on her bare back was giving her unknown sensation, a shiver ran through her spine. She squeezed her eyes and tried to control herself. Sanskar was looking at the person as he was still there.

Sanskar: Swara, ahm...hmm. If..if..you don't mind, may I do it for you?

Swara was already going though so much. So, she nodded. Getting approval from Swara, Sanskar move his hand to her blouse hook (still hugging her) her breathe stuck in her throat as his hand move. Sanskar tried to hook it but couldn't then he got that hook is broken.

Sanskar: Swara, the hook is broken.

Swara heard him and panicked suddenly. Sanskar feels it and say: Don't panick Swara. I m with you na. Trust me. Okay?

Swara nods. Sanskar thought to cover her back by saree pallu but couldn't as the saree was a bit transparent. So, he think something. He kept his hand on her back like side hugging her and covers her back.

Sanskar: Walk Swara.

Swara look at him confusingly.

Sanskar: Trust me Swara. I won't leave your side.

Swara complies and walk. They were walking together. Sanskar smartly come away through the area where guest was there and went inside. Then lead Swara to their room as some guests were sitting in hall too.
